That's it!!! you have a demon in your box.... get it exorcised so that
the daemons can run properly! *grin* Ok enough of the bad humor I've
been translating pidgden to English all day. (Inlaws here from Korea.)
I'd check two things msec (are the boxes set to the same level) and then
check to make sure xinetd is running. (at least for wu-ftpd) also with
wu-ftpd make sure that the file in /etc/xinetd.d says disable = no
instead of yes.
